Conducting A Hotsync Operation Via A Network; Connecting To Your Company's Dial-In Server - Palm m500 Series Handbook

Conducting a HotSync operation
via a network
When you use the network HotSync technology, you can take
advantage of the LAN and WAN connectivity available in many office
environments. Network HotSync technology enables you to perform
a HotSync operation by dialing in to a network or by using a cradle
that is connected to any computer on your LAN or WAN (provided
that the computer connected to the cradle also has the network
HotSync technology installed, your computer is on, and the HotSync
Manager is running).

Connecting to your company's dial-in server

A network HotSync operation requires the following (consult your
System Administrator for assistance):
Your computer has TCP/IP support installed.
Both your company's network system and its remote access server
support TCP/IP.
You have a remote access account.
Everything you need to connect to your company's dial-in server
(network modem) is included with Palm Desktop software and
handheld software. You need to activate the feature, however, on
both Palm Desktop software and your handheld.
To prepare your computer for a network HotSync operation:
1. Click the HotSync Manager icon
2. From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Network.
3. From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Setup.
